In a nightmarish dream world, a disturbed playwright writing a play about Emily Dickinson tries to come to grip with past abuses to avoid suicide.
Eden Francis Compton enjoys exposing the dark underbelly of people, and then eviscerating those same people with dramas that delve deep into human nature, the drama of the human condition, and the wonderful absurdity of life itself. A love of history provides Eden with the raw material for these fascinating stories.
When not writing, Eden enjoys reading history inspired fiction, with some favorites including The Kitchen God's Wife (Amy Tan), The Agony and the Ecstasy (Irving Stone), and I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings (Maya Angelou).
Set aside your expectations and buckle your seatbelt for a "wild ride to a history inspired spiritual awakening."
